Making a difference through research

Kingston is a forward-looking university with a wealth of academic talent and an innovative, enterprising research culture.

The impact of the University's research can be seen in the local region and on the world stage. Our forward-thinking ethos and our active engagement with other organisations help to ensure our research is relevant, cutting-edge and of value to others. Much of our work is applied, with beneficiaries ranging from local businesses and cultural institutions, to government departments and international conglomerates.

This section of the site gives you a flavour of the exciting and important research which is taking place here. This is only the tip of the iceberg – you can find out more on our faculty and centre pages.
